About suicide...

Look... I know you may mean well, but stop. If you think that rationalizing the subject will help anyone seriously struggling with this issue, you simply do not understand.

Bullying someone... telling them they're cowards... or that they're "punking out" on their families... this will not help. It may, in fact, make it worse.

So please... if you know someone struggling with it, don't do those things. Empathize... be there for them... tell them how much you need them... how much you'll miss them and how much their loved ones need them and will miss them.

But for the love of God and all that's holy please for fuck's sake PLEASE do not bully them.

Thanks for listening.
